higher
Wheat prices have been heavy and lower since
the activity noted early in the week. Checked
shipments, partly owing to the strike less demand
from abroad and favorable crop reports helped
depress prices. Coffee is stronger than last week,
since the advance in Brazil following the late de-
cline. There is no corroboration of the rumor
that Brazil crop estimates have been increased.
Wool is stronger since the London sales, where
advances Of to 10 per cent were made. Wool
ems generally, however, are higher, although a
few qualities are per cent higher. Cotton goods
are less active but firm at late advances.
The total number Of failures in the United
States reported to Bradstreet's this week is 24s
against s25 last week, 337 in the like week. last
year. 3s6 in 1885, 80 in 1884, and 2s9 in 1888.
Canada had 10, against 80 last week. The Unit
ed States has had 255 failures this year to date,
against 1864 in 1886, 1,645 in 1885. 1858 in
